The NYX Professional Makeup Slim Lip Pencil is engineered for precision and longevity. Its smooth, creamy consistency allows for effortless gliding along the lip contour, delivering a rich, full-coverage color that defines with accuracy. Once applied, it acts as an invisible barrier, effectively preventing your lipstick or lip gloss from migrating beyond the lip line, thus eliminating feathering, smudging, and fading throughout the day. This not only maintains the integrity of your lip color but also extends its wear time significantly.
How to Use for Optimal Results:
Prep Your Lips: Ensure your lips are smooth and moisturized. Gently exfoliate if necessary.
Outline: Starting from your Cupid's bow, carefully outline your natural lip line. For a fuller look, you can slightly overline just outside your natural lip border.
Fill (Optional): For enhanced longevity or a matte base, you can lightly fill in your entire lip with the pencil.
Apply Lip Color: Follow with your favorite lipstick or lip gloss. The lip pencil will help lock it in place and prevent bleeding.
Setup: This product requires no initial setup beyond removing the cap. It's ready for immediate use.
Compatibility: The NYX Professional Makeup Slim Lip Pencil is designed to be compatible with a wide range of lipsticks and lip glosses, serving as a foundational step for any lip color application. It performs best when paired with lip products that you wish to make more long-wearing and resistant to bleeding.
Care and Maintenance:
Sharpening: As a pencil format, regular sharpening is necessary to maintain a precise tip. Use a high-quality cosmetic sharpener to ensure a clean cut and prevent breakage.
Storage: Store the lip pencil in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to preserve its creamy texture and prevent it from drying out or becoming too soft.
Hygiene: For best hygiene, avoid sharing your lip pencil. If used professionally, ensure proper sanitization between clients.
